DaYuLing High Mountain Oolong, Spring 2020

Hsieh Jiang Lin Tea Company


Season: Spring 2020

Elevation: 2200m +

Origin: DaYuLing 80K-90K Gardens

Tree Variety: 青心乌龙 QingXin Oolong

Oxidation: 25%

Roasting: 0%


DESCRIPTION:


This tea was grown in the famous DaYuLing 大禹岭 tea gardens at an elevation of 2200m and above. This DaYuLing is sourced from gardens between the 80K-90K Markers in DaYuLing. Each season Hsieh Jiang Lin will evaluate the tea from these gardens and choose one to source from for that season.


The amount of tea picked every year in DaYuLing is quite limited. This combined with its prized status makes it quite special. This tea is a smooth oolong with a wonderfully fresh aroma, sweetness, nice mouthfeel, minerality and lingering aftertaste. This tea was hand-picked in Spring 2020.

BREWING METHODS


Kung Fu Brewing


Warm the teapot or gaiwan by adding hot water and then pouring it out.

Add around 5g of tea for every 150ml of water. Begin by adding the loose tea to the teapot or gaiwan.

We recommend using water around 95C.

Tea can be rinsed quickly with hot water. This first rinse helps to open up the tea for its first brew. This first rinse is optional.

The tea can be steeped multiple times (at least 6 times). We recommend the following steep times per brew, but we also recommend extending or shortening the brewing time depending on preference for a stronger or weaker brew.


Steep Times:


1st :50s → 2nd: 45s → 3rd:50s → 4th:50s → 5th:60s

 


Western Method


We recommend using a large coffee mug and a tea strainer or a thermos with a tea strainer for this method. Add 1 tsp of tea to the strainer and place it into the thermos or mug.

Pour hot water into the vessel. We recommend using water between 95-100C. As soon as the water has come to a boil and settled, it can be added to the mug or thermos.

The tea can be steeped 2-3 times. We recommend beginning by steeping for 2-3 minutes and then extending steeping time if desired.



Cold Brewing Method


Add 1 tsp for a 500ml thermos.

Add cold or room temperature water to the thermos.

Seal the lid and place the thermos in a refrigerator. We recommend leaving the thermos for at

least 4hours. Thermos can be put into the refrigerator to steep overnight.

If refilling, we recommend topping up the water before the volume falls

half-way to keep the tea flavourful.
